Astrology for Sunday, 9 February 2020:

We begin today with the Full Moon going exact in Leo during the early hours before dawn. Then the Moon in Leo makes a trine to Mars in Sagittarius. What feels as if it is simmering beneath the surface of your skin, quickening to a rapid boil, waiting to be expressed or let loose? The Moon trine Mars, both in fire signs, bolsters our courage and confidence, igniting our passion and determination to take the actions we know that it’s time to take. Then the Moon ingresses into Virgo, shifting our attention to the pragmatic matter of taking that which we learn and putting it into practice. With Mercury, the ruler of Virgo, in antithesis and fall in Pisces, the details may not feel clear, but we are being given the opportunity to trust that there is utility in attending to our personal and collective emotional lives. What if your feelings are not getting in the way of what needs to be accomplished? What if your feelings are actually sensible guides to that which requires our attention and that which needs to be done? The Moon then makes a trine to Uranus in Taurus, activating our resources for both adaptability and innovation. As you translate the lessons of your own emotional tides into tangible, material processes—“this is what I feel and this is what then needs to be done”—it may be that there are patterns that need to be broken, conventions that are no longer useful, or sedentary circumstances that are no longer in service to that toward which your feelings are guiding you. Be willing to do things differently if that is what your emotional well-being requires.
